    While we don't want to give anyone the impression that comping is a sure-fire way to make cash

    Without 1,000s of won nothing stories for every winning one that's exactly what they do and potentially it's 100,000s or more for the big prizes.

    Lol, they will soon get bored, even us hardcore compers get annoyed after no wins for a while, they will come and go!!

    But...yeah, I thought the same when I saw it this morning lol

    Drives me mad when I read terms like "Turn entering competitions into a cash-boosting hobby - how to make your winning ways automatic" - people are going to read that and think it's a sure fire thing.
    Don't think that a £25 Tesco voucher and a mascara (my wins so far this year) are going to pay the bills somehow!!

    No? How disappointing, I was gonna offer my credit cards a personalised kitkat in place of a payment this month!
